Hasn't voted | It was quite the move to get into it, too! Then I wasn't totally sure it was going to hold - but it most certainly did! | | Posted May 19, 2006 2:24 am |

Voted 10/10 | By doughnut, you mean powered sugar
with a sprinkling of nuts, right???
That's the most unusual landform I have
ever seen, but your smile is tops. May
I please attach this to my "Mountains of
Smiles" album? Thank you very much. | | Posted Feb 13, 2008 7:57 pm |

Voted 10/10 | Thanks, I forgot to add that I was born
in Tacoma, and attended Forestry classes
at Green River CC. My first Forestry job
was at Lake Wenatchee in 1986. How did I
end up in central Arizona??? Your guess is
as good as mine! Take care.

Hasn't voted | I know some of the people at Green River - who were your instructors? Yes, Arizona is a far cry from western Washington! | | Posted Feb 13, 2008 8:33 pm |
 | | lcarreau | Re: They | | 
Voted 10/10 | were Walt Scobie and Pat Cummins. They
handled the entire program, including
tree-planting Silviculture and field trips
to eastern Washington and the Olympic
Peninsula. One time we even went up to
the North Cascades! Everybody connected
with those people thought the world of
them. We even got to do some tree-thinning
with chainsaws. On my days off, the
Cascades were my beautiful playground.
I also attended a mountain biology class
with Denny White, who has long since retired.
Everybody was so friendly there!!!
(I even did the long hike up to Camp Muir
with one of the instructors, I think her name
was Jane Adams. I only remembered because we saw
Mount Adams from that vantage point!) I
was also a member of the Tacoma Mountaineers
for 8 years. | | Posted Feb 13, 2008 9:20 pm |

Hasn't voted | Walt and Pat were great guys and I think they are both retired. Dave Hopkins is now the main instructor and I don't know who else he has helping him. They are very active in the SAF and got the student chapter of the year award this year. | | Posted Feb 13, 2008 10:05 pm |

Voted 10/10 | I'm glad to hear the tradition is
alive and continuing there. I know it
has changed significantly in 25 years.
It's still great to get out in the field
and smell the trees, and possibly have
a Douglas squirrel drop a cone on your head.
Thanks for the information! | | Posted Feb 14, 2008 12:15 am |
